In court papers filed Tuesday in Palm Beach County Circuit Court, the World Golf Hall of Fame member sued his longtime corporate lawyer Jack Schneider, claiming the attorney stole trade secrets before he was fired on Feb. 8.

Norman, who named his diverse West Palm Beach-based company, Great White Shark Enterprises, after the nickname he earned for his tenacity on the links, is seeking an injunction against Schneider to prevent him from using any of the information.

In addition to “copying and deleting proprietary, confidential and trade secret information,” Schneider damaged company computer equipment when removing the hard drives, according to the lawsuit filed by Boca Raton attorney Erika Deutsch Rotbart.

Schneider, who lives in suburban Lake Worth, wasn’t immediately available for comment. After working for Norman’s company for 14 years as both its general counsel and chief financial officer, he was fired for “blatant disregard of his duties to (Great White Shark Enterprises), insubordination … among other gross failures,” according to the lawsuit.
